That would invariably be true of those who end up being
the *most* successful. If they "knew what's going on",
they'd do it the "right" way... and end up being just
like everyone else at best.

It's the ones with *smarts*, not knowledge, who do new
things in new ways and are the most successful.

Of course it is obvious why Randall Ainsworth is not
comfortable with creative people like that around...
